Excellent service! Thank you very to everyone with whom we got in contact to place our purchase order. The customer service was highly professional and resolved all the issues we had and we received our clutch we ordered by Alexander McQueen

I made 2 purchases at Farfetch, the first one went well, the second time I received 1 of the 3 pieces I purchased and when I contacted customer service they said they would carry out an investigation and the conclusion was that they found no error. Loss of 700 dollars. I feel ripped off, I don't intend to buy there again. Picture below of how my purchase arrived.

Absolutely disappointing experience with Farfetch. After placing an order, they canceled it citing unavailability of the item in their inventory. Then, miraculously, the item became available again, only to be informed later that it was out of stock once more. This is utterly unacceptable. I strongly advise against shopping here. Farfetch is clearly deceiving customers, and their practices are deceitful

DO NOT BUY FROM THEM. That's all.
Farfetch didn't send customs-required info along with my product. Customs reached out to them for over a week but Farfetch didn't reply so Customs denied clearance. So, FedEx prepared return packaging. I had to call FedEx to get the return packaging shipping info for Farfetch. Even that, Farfetch has still delayed my product. They are completely useless.

Do not order unless you are sure that the item will fit you. I ordered a pair of shoes in December and decided to return my order as the size was too small. They refuse to refund me because they pretend that the article got damaged. It can't be me because I literally just wore the shoes for 2 minutes and put them back in the box. It might have been damaged in the transportation or after they received it. They refuse any sort of discussion and decided to send it back to me and charge me. It is a totally abusive practice. After reading several similar comments, I actually think that they intentionally damage the returned items in order not to refund their clients, as they are in a pretty difficult financial situation.

I left a review based on a bad experience because the customer service didn't repair the problem. Prompted to email again and got no reply. Farfetch owes me $26 for a promotional discount.
They sent a very expensive garment in a single sheet of tissue paper. What if the cardboard box got wet or torn as the previous one did?
No garment bag or wrapper. I had to purchase one from another retailer.

The return for another item was never picked up and no paperwork was sent.
Lost a day waiting for dhl to arrive. They told me they dont do scheduled time slots for pick ups.
Long story short, FF has turned into Yoox, which is a clearance website.
FF is not a luxury site anymore and so they have lost my business.

No product was delivered, after intensively follow-up with UPS for more than 2 weeks, apparently my package was lost. Furthermore, Farfetch customer service without fact checking sent an email that there won't be any refund. I fought back to get my money refunded and eventually received my money back. Lost so much time and bad experience and resulted nothing as 1st time experience purchasing via FarFetch

Tip for consumers:
1st time experience and it was extremely bad. No longer purchase from here and prevent UPS shipping company as well

Never order from that company. It's a hidden scam. I paid more than 80$ and never received it. When I reached the customer service, their answer was that the package was stollen in front of my house and it was not their responsibility.

It's now been 4 months and still NO REFUND. The customer service agents won't raise a complaint and cannot and will not answer to where my parcel is or who lost my order. Two videos uploaded with this review proves how terrible and vile their customer service is. I have had to contact Trading Standards to report how Farfetch are operating.

Returned my order back in August 2023, the order passed UK customs and was sent to Japan and then returned back to my billing address EMPTY. My parcel was stolen and tampered with somewhere after UK customs to Japan and back to me. Farfetch have been ignoring me since August and still have not refunded me for my missing goods of £180. I have had to contact trading standards to get involved. Do not purchase from Farfetch. Worst customer service I've ever experienced. I am now £180 down and I do not even have the goods.

I bought a pair of boots that weren't labeled for any gender and assumed they were women's, well they were men's. And yes they were 'final sale'. But their website did not indicate clearly what gender these were for. I went back and forth with their 'customer support' I offered to pay the full shipping refund costs myself, (denied) to exchanging the men's boot for the women's, (denied) to only receive a site credit in lieu of a refund, (denied) and basically told lol F off. Zero customer support. Buy only if you have 100% trust in what you're paying for and have no desire to refund,exchange, etc.

Tip for consumers:
Buy only if you fully intend to not return.

This online store has the policy that once shipping label created and customer wants to cancel; it has to be shipped anyway regardless. Waste of energy and resources for both parts. When to remove or cancel a shipping label is a simple solution. Poor customer service and lack of common sense.

After returning a pair of shoes that had I had not worn (indeed, I had not even fully removed them from the box), the company denied the return. I was told I should have inspected the shoes and reported wear/damage upon receipt, and since I was unaware of this policy, it is on me to bear the responsibility. No other retailer I've ever dealt with has been this inflexible and unhelpful. There was not even a discussion regarding potential options, credit, a partial return, etc. Do not recommend purchasing from this site as you can find all of these goods elsewhere with significantly better customer service.

My 65 year old mom bought my wife a $500 pair of shoes from Farfetch and they were never worn. Farfetch would not let us return or exchange the shoes even though they were never even put on. I wouldn't recommend Farfetch to anyone. This has been horrible.

Tip for consumers:
Do not use Farfetch.

They are no help and told us there is nothing they can do. It was the worst customer service I have ever had. We love buying expensive shoes, but we will never use Farfetch again.

Finally getting to sharing this. Bought my husband a pair of Dolce & Gabbana slippers for Christmas present. He opened the package on Christmas day, in front of the family. He loved the look (red Carretto Siciliano-print terry slippers). When he put them on however, he said it's not stable (thick foamy soles). The family said he shouldn't take a chance falling while on stairs. So I packed them (in all the original wrappings and package), got shipping labels and sent via UPS. Sometime later I received an email that says they found a problem - pulled thread (from terry cloth). I emailed asking how was the package opened, because I didn't pull any thread while packing them. The next thing they did was to mailed slippers back to me (refusing to take the return). When I looked at the bottom of slippers through the plastics (never opened it), there was a long, VERY visible thread. I absolutely didn't do this because it's not possible to not notice this. Having seen the material, I understand that a pull COULD happen, especially if someone has a sharp object nearby. As a vendor, blaming such an event on a customer without evidence is dishonorable. They could have it repaired. We could have it repaired if we liked the product, but we don't. At this day of age, we will do plenty of on-line shopping's, and returns - never had this kind of experience ever before. Be warned, do not shop on farfetch!

Farfetch return team accused me falsly for
Defects on boots that I didnt make.
I got boots that were too big, so I packed straight away and send it back. I didnt make any photos.
I got answer from Farfetch that boots came with defects! They sent me photos of boots, I couldnt prove other way so they sent boots back.
And this is not the end! I got boots and I couldnt believe my eyes, but defects are worse then in the photos they send me! This time I have a proof. I dont know what caused these defects(I think the original black box), but what I want you to learn from my mistake- make photos off everything you get just in case.
I still hope they will refund me

Worst service ever! Returned my shoes 2 months ago and still haven't received any updates or refund!
Also ordered a tory burch bag, after two uses the material starting wearing off and cracking,after negotiations all they offered is a 10% refund since the item has been used as if i would've kept it if it was initially in this bad condition. Super disappointed, i need to send them a minimum of 3 emails to get a response and no body even cares!

I've had my card and id saved by this company. It ended up that I got a lot of money stolen by this company. Money I haven't spent here at all. I bought my wife some shoes, worth $70
They ended up taking $1000 from my account. Robbers. And I'm not getting my money back either. Even though they've found out, that it wasn't me, spending any money here. Because, they've already shipped the goods to someone who had hacked my informations on this site. They shipped the goods at the same moment, that the money got taken from account. When I ordered for my wife, it took days to get the confirmation and then the process started. Here they took the money and then the package was shipped. I smell something rotten here. And bye bye money

Tip for consumers:
DON'T BY FROM THIS SITE!!

Ordered and never received package. DHL directs you to contact Farfetch, Farfetch doesn't care that you never received your package. Shopped with Farfetch multiple times prior but will never shop from them again. They did not offer any form of resolution at all. Just said 'sorry we can't help any further'. Never dealt with such horrible customer service. Even Walmart values their customers more than Farfetch! That's hundreds of dollars down the drain for me at Farfetch's disposal. Scam of a website. DO NOT SHOP HERE.

I ordered something from them almost 3 weeks ago and there was an issue with customs which I had then communicated with them that I would like to process a refund. The courier company had also tried to get in contact with them in regards to this to send back the item which then never responded nor got back to the courier company. My issue is still not being dealt with and their responses were the same saying "they we working on it" and now they are not responding to any of my emails nor have they given my money back.

This is very unfortunate that my first time experience with them is going this bad as I had very high hopes and was planning on shopping from then regularly if my first order had went well but clearly not.

So I just recently ordered four Purple Brand Tees. One on 5/5/23 and three on 5/15/23. Todays date is 5/19/23 and the 4th of my 4 are already here. My 5/5 purchase came on 5/9. Authentic,Unworn,Neatly packaged. One item came from the Netherlands and another from Italy. Great prices and always has flash sales or discounts for members. An assortment of Purple Brand. Can't speak about other designer purchases …but I'm pretty sure you'll get the same outcome.Merchandise comes from accredited stores. Even sign signature deliveries. Over all GREAT company.

I ordered approximately 700$ of clothes, one jacket and one pant
I never got it, apparently a third party took care of the delivery, so it was hard to track the items, they were not sure where it was, I finally got a confirmation it has been delivered, when I contested it, they sent me a proof of delivery, but it's not even sign by myself, it's the name of someone I don't even know, what a shame to deliver expensive clothes but to deliver it with any care, I told them I didn't sign for it, it's not my name on the signature, they didn't want to hear more about it and they closed this case and after months i still never been refund or even a voucher
They give you parcel to any guy who will be there when they deliver
I spent a lot of money with Farfetch, I'm not a lambda customer so I don't understand

It's protecting the criminals that are selling fake bags from China and they don't check properly. On Sunday, I discovered they sold me a fake bag and I've given them every opportunity to fix it. And they gave me some script
I told them anytime somebody discovers they sold them a fake should be a good time for them to fix it. They still chose to do nothing
SO Do not spend your money with this company unless you want to Pay too much Money to BUY Chinese crap. I don't support the Chinese communist party! Do you? Please look at the labels one is correct and one is made in China It has no structure. Because it's a fake The one with the blue lining is the real one

Tip for consumers:
This is a real company selling fake Chinese knock offs, pretending they are real
